2021-2022 Mid-Year Report

Background

To date (Dec 08, 2021), Teaching Lab has administered the following to participants from your school or district during SY21-22:

• 14 complete responses to the End of Session Surveys that gather participant feedback on facilitation from session to session;

• 28 responses to the End of Course Surveys that gather participant feedback on each PL course;

Below are the results presented in various sections: Participant Feedback and Participant Knowledge.

Section 1: Participant Perceptions

Teaching Lab collects participant feedback on facilitation from session to session and then on the entire course once it has concluded. Below are results for both.

Section 1a: End of Session Summary

Participants’ aggregate feedback on each session is provided below.

In summary, we see the following % agree or strongly agree with the above statements:

• 93% strongly agree or agree that they were fully prepared for the session.
• 93% strongly agree or agree that they responded to the group’s needs.
• 93% strongly agree or agree that they facilitated the content clearly.
• 93% strongly agree or agree that they effectively built a safe learning community.
• 93% strongly agree or agree that they demonstrated deep knowledge of the content they facilitated.

Finally, here are some highlights from the textual feedback of the end of session survey
